Four Best National Parks in the World

Kakadu National Park, Australia

Although the Blue Mountains is Australia’s most visited national park, Kakadu is the largest and wins hands-down for natural beauty and historical importance. It covers over 20,000 square kilometres, with waterfalls pouring into natural pools, vast wetlands and wildlife-filled places. Kakadu’s highlight is one of the highest concentrations of rock art sites anywhere in the world.

Best time to visit: June to October

Plitvice Lakes National Park, Croatia

Croatia’s first national park in 1949 and now one of the country’s most popular attractions. Plitvice Lakes is a waterworld of pools with changing colors, pouring waterfalls and interconnected watercourses. The lakes sit on two levels, and the surrounding woodland is visited by brown bears, wolves and lynx, with various trees alive with rare birds.

Best time to visit: Summer greens, fall golds and winter snows make Plitvice an ever-changing year-round destination

Vatnajokull National Park, Iceland

Here you’ll find all the natural wonders that this island has become famous for— ice caves, waterfalls, and

glaciers that can be hiked on. And most of these attractions can be accessed relatively easily off Iceland’s Ring Road, four hours or so from Reykjavik. The Park was created in 2008 by joining together Jokulsargljufur and Skaftafell National Park to create a supersized area of over 12,000 square kilometres, making it the largest national park in Europe.

Best time to visit: Summer for hiking; winter for ice cave tours

Tongariro National Park, New Zealand

Tongariro National Park has two World Heritage roles for its cultural and natural significance. The Park’s 19-kilometre Tongariro Alpine Crossing is also one of the best day hikes on the planet. It offers the chance to summit(登顶)an active volcano, hiking over burnt volcanic rock up to the Red Crater for impressive views.

Best time to visit: Summer gives the best chance of good weather; winter hikes are possible but increasingly unpredictable

Our “Mommy and Me” time began two years ago. My next-door neighbor and fellow mother Christie, and I were out in our front yards, watching seven children of age 6 and under ride the bikes up and down. “I wish I could take one of my children out alone,” said Christie.

Then we worked out a plan: When Christie takes one of her children out, I’ll watch her other three. And when she watches two of mine. I’ll take someone out.

The children were extremely quick to accept the idea of “Mommy and Me” time. Christie’s daughter, McKenzie, went first. When she returned, the other children showered her with tons of questions. McKenzie was smiling broadly. Christie looked refreshed and happy. “She’s like a different child when there’s no one else around,” Christie shared with me quickly. With her mother all to herself, McKenzie didn’t have to make an effort to gain attention.

Just as Christie had noticed changes in McKenzie, I also discovered something different in each of my children. For example, I am always surprised when my daughter, who is seldom close to me, holds my hand frequently. My stuttering (口吃的) son, Tom, doesn’t stutter once during our activities since he doesn’t have to struggle for a chance to speak. And another son, Sam, who’s always a follower when around other children shines as a leader during our times together.

The “Mommy and Me” time allows us to be simply alone and away with each child-talking, sharing, and laughing, which has been the biggest gain. Every child deserves to be an only child at least once in a while.

4. What was the author and her neighbor’s plan?

A. To teach their children how to stay alone.

B. To change their own children’s bad habits.

C. To make a child live in the other home for a long time.

D. To help each other spend some time with one child at a time.

5. How many children did the author have?

A. Five. B. Four.

C. Three. D. Two.

6. After going through the plant the author’s sons became       .

A. braver B. cleverer

C. more active D. more selfless

7. What can we learn from the text?

A. Every child needs parents’ full attention.

B. Having brothers and sisters is fun.

C. It’s tiring to take care of others’ children.

D. Parents should look after others’ children.

Imagine looking through TikTok and seeing famous MrBeast pop up. He says he’s giving away brand-new phones. “Click the link below to claim yours now!” Do you click? Maybe. It looks and sounds like MrBeast. But it’s actually a deepfake — a false clip (片段) created by artificial intelligence (AI). Last October, this video tricked fans into sharing personal details. But a new tool, AntiFake, could help prevent such scams (欺诈).

An AI model can learn to imitate someone’s voice based on about 30 seconds of speech. “It does this by creating something called an embedding. This is basically a series of numbers,” says Zhiyuan Yu, a PhD student in
